Touch

Don't tell anyone

Don't show anything

You should be strong.

You shouldn't feel

But can you see how it's destroying me?

But can you see how this fear paralyzes me?

But can you see the closer you get the more I want to disappear?

Your every touch.

Your every word.

It burns a hole in me

Can you just leave?

Can you let me escape?

From your touch that crosses my borders

When you look at me I feel empty.

When you touch my hair I want to rip it out.

When you talk to me, I want to plug my ears.

Please just let me go. Let me be free
